You should not be using solid core cable for the alarm, there is a British Standard for alarm cable can't remember the number but it should be stranded. You may find if you use it that an alarm company will not take on responsibility for the system if you need a Police connection or for insurance purposes.

OK I bow to my peers superior knowledge here. I tend to use STP cable instead of shielded alarm cable as it is more robust for pulling (than alarm cable). Personally I would drag STP everywhere but if my peers say that this may lead to problems then I would advise UTP. BUT I would advise either UTP or shielded alarm cable for your alarm pannel and sensors.
